[Refdb-users] new blog and bib project

[Bruce D'A. <bd...@fa...>]

It's amazing how much stuff is going on that even I am unaware of.   
Here's information about a project that aims to really push the  
boundaries of bibliographic applications by integrating it -- as a  
demonstration application -- with principles of the semantic web.  In  
essence, bibliographic management for groups becomes integrated with  
weblogging.  Fascinating stuff, and its analysis of current application  
weaknesses is good:

requirements-specification.html

BTW, the technical underpinnings for storage are -- following a number  
other similar high-profile projects like Chandler and Haystack -- based  
on RDF (storage in Berkeley DB).
